The Annapurna Sanctuary with Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek is a complete Himalayan experience that combines two of Nepal’s most iconic routes, the Annapurna Base Camp Trek and the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, into one unforgettable 14 day journey. This carefully designed itinerary ensures a smooth, well paced adventure through diverse landscapes, rich mountain culture, and breathtaking high altitude scenery.
Your journey begins in Kathmandu before traveling to Pokhara, the scenic gateway to the Annapurna region. From Nayapul or Birethanti, the trail gradually ascends through terraced farmlands, lush rhododendron forests, cascading waterfalls, and traditional Gurung and Magar villages. Ghorepani, once an important stop along ancient salt trade routes between Nepal and Tibet, now serves as a vibrant trekking hub. Above the village lies Poon Hill at 3,210 meters, one of the most famous sunrise viewpoints in Nepal. At dawn, panoramic views unfold across Annapurna South, Dhaulagiri, Machhapuchhre, and Hiunchuli, creating a moment that feels deeply personal and powerful.
From Poon Hill, the route continues deeper into the Annapurna Conservation Area, following the Modi Khola valley toward Annapurna Base Camp at 4,130 meters. The Annapurna Sanctuary gained global recognition after the historic 1950 French expedition successfully summited Annapurna I at 8,091 meters, the first 8,000 meter peak ever climbed. Today, trekkers stand within this natural amphitheater of snow and ice, surrounded by towering Himalayan giants.
Throughout the trek, landscapes shift dramatically from subtropical forests to alpine meadows and glacial moraines. Each day reveals new mountain perspectives, vast valleys, prayer flags fluttering along ridgelines, and unforgettable Himalayan silence. This trek is not only scenic, it is transformational.
With professional planning, gradual acclimatization, and experienced local guides from Sole Encounters Adventures, the journey runs smoothly from start to finish. Every logistical detail is managed with care, allowing you to focus fully on the mountains, the culture, and the profound sense of achievement that comes with reaching Annapurna Base Camp.
This is more than a trek. It is a journey into the heart of the Annapurna region, where history, landscape, and human spirit meet beneath the highest peaks on Earth.
This Annapurna trekking package blends iconic viewpoints, high altitude achievement, and cultural immersion.
Reaching Annapurna Base Camp at 4,130 meters is the emotional summit of the trek. Standing in the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary, surrounded by snow covered peaks in every direction, creates a sense of awe that words cannot capture.
The sunrise from Poon Hill is a bucket list Himalayan experience. As dawn breaks over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, the shifting light paints the mountains in gold and crimson.

Cultural encounters in Gurung and Magar villages provide insight into authentic Himalayan life, shaped by tradition, agriculture, and mountain resilience.
